Justin Koschitzke, St Kilda, has been charged with a Level Two engaging in rough conduct offence against Mitch Duncan, Geelong Cats, during the second quarter of the Round 13 match between St Kilda and the Geelong Cats, played at the MCG on Saturday June 18, 2011.

In summary, due to a previous poor record, his two-game sanction must remain at two games, even with an early plea.

Based on the video evidence available and a medical report from the Geelong Cats, the incident was assessed as negligent conduct (one point), medium impact (two points) and high contact (two points). This is a total of five activation points, resulting in a classification of a Level Two offence, drawing 225 demerit points and a two-match sanction. He has an existing poor record of five matches suspended within the last three years, increasing the penalty by 50 per cent to 337.50 points and a three-match sanction. An early plea reduces the sanction by 25 per cent to 253.13 points and a two-match sanction
